Leandro Erlich - The Confines of the Great Void, 2019. CAFA Museum, Beijing

On the occasion of his major exhibition in Palazzo Reale in Milan on view until October 4 and his intervention in the Liberty Science Center in New Jersey visible through the summer, our new Cinema Room episode is dedicated to a world-renowned Argentine conceptual artist Leandro Erlich. His stunning installations transform the ordinary things - a house, a swimming pool, an elevator… - into truly extraordinary manifestations, reversing our perception of the inner and outer reality. They create a strong visual paradox, challenge our worldview and bring the magic back into everyday life, sparking a sense of curiosity and wonder.
In 2019, Leandro Erlich has been invited to present his 20 large-scale interactive installations created over the last 25 years at CAFA Art Museum in Beijing, China. The exhibition, entitled as “Leandro Erlich: The Confines of the Great Void”, was one of the largest of the artist’s career. In this interview, the artist’s explains talks about his vision of reality as a construct which he constantly seeks to challenge, about art as participative field of playful experience and interactivity.
